The Levi's that I'm wearing have been good to me. They just won't admit they're growing old. And though my shirt's made contract with a gutter now and then.
Just because I asked a friend about her. Just because I spoke her name somewhere. Just because I rang her number by mistake today. She thinks I still care.
Well, you ask me if I'm happy, if I have peace within. If I'm worried about tomorrow when I reach my journey's end. Well, I'm satisfied with my Jesus, when He knocks, oh let Him in.
There's a place down the street we call Sam's Place. It starts a jumpin' every evenin' when the sun goes down. You can always find me here down at Sam's Place.
There's only so many mistakes I can take. There's only so many moods that I can fake. I shouldn't listen to a word that you ever say. And given half the chance I will be looking for another way.
Om dagene gr. Fort eller tregt. Spiller ingen. Rolle for meg. Men nr jeg endelig. Sovner inn. Hender det at. Jeg drmmer om deg. Og da gr jeg. Ved siden av deg.
Kjre sster, jeg har tenkt mye p deg. Har gjort klart et rom- du kan komme nr du vil. Fin fin utsikt, du kan ligge se ut. P asp, osp, oker, lnn og bjrk.

Tell everybody I'm leaving. Not treading water today. I've left the spoons in the backroom. It's better ending this way. . I'll crave a fortune forever.
Sink like a stone, into the deep that's where we'll go,. Tides turning home; season came down, down comes the cold,. But oh no, hey, where did you go?.
This satellites lost, where has the fire gone?. Down deeper he knows, there's still a chance to find it. But should he stay lost, you are the reason, you are the cause.
Snow in a soulless city. Covers up the cracks in the road. As a wastrel buys her cigarettes. And wipes her pretty nose. . Like a part-time Elvis imitator.
Everybody in the funhouse. Says they want out. But we're taking our time. 'Cos we're in love with time. . Whole generations, thinkin' of themselves. As infidels and pop stars.
Here I am, hardly breathing in at all. I cough when I can and that's about all. I am this man and though I turn the tape to a happier song. My face can't find a smile because it's been looking too long.
With all the stuff they sell you night and day. With all the trash they try to trick you with you lie to me. Well I don't need it, but I get it anyway.
You can grin but you can't hide. All the emptiness inside. Since she left you like. Spit in the rain. . Without doubt, it is true. She was the only love you knew.
With the sweet drip of every raindrop. Time brings you closer to me. And with each new sign, at every train stop. Another hour without you is consigned to history.
I ain't gonna laugh at this no more. Or let it just slip by. I ain't gonna watch this till I choke on the lie. . I ain't gonna take this anymore. I ain't sitting quiet.
I must've had a million damn unlucky days. But there ain't no cloud that a bottle can't chase away. I've done my deal of livin', ran from place to place.
